Episode 79 “For now, leave the Eosia matter to them. If any new information comes in, notify me immediately.” “Yes, sir.” Borbel bowed respectfully and withdrew. Leviathan called for Adolf. “Bring me Rubian’s adoption papers.” “Here they are.” He completed the complicated documents with meticulous care. Rubian was his daughter. Whatever past she carried no longer mattered. His pen paused a moment at the section regarding the child’s nationality. “Adolf,…

Episode 63 “No, you really don’t have to eat it!” “If you want cake, you need to have your meal first. Let’s go.” “Huh?” While I stood there blankly, I realized Liam had already made it halfway down the corridor and was looking back at me. His gaze lingered, then came a short sigh. “So it’s true, what Void said. You really are a spoiled child.” “Wh-what?!” I flailed my limbs like a fish freshly caught, because Liam, having strode up without expression,…

75“……” “You were here this morning, too.” “Did she fall asleep?” Khalid’s reply was unrelated. “If you’re that curious, you might as well have gone in.” “…It’s fine.” The boy answered coolly, folding his arms. He looked, surprisingly, quite natural standing among the knights. “…I don’t deserve to.” “What?” “Nothing. I’ll keep watch here.” He spoke with resolve, turning his gaze away from Leviathan in a final way. That…

114“All right. Your attire’s a bit unkempt, but… oh, it’s fine. I’ve learned some flexibility at this post. We’ll work out the details as we go.” “Eek! No… Rubian! Help me!” Nothing could stop a youth thirsting for knowledge. In the end, Asha was borne away in a book cart lined with plush cushions. Thud. It wouldn’t be more than a few steps from here to the adjoining study, but Asha… made the journey in comfort. Khalid shook his head, as if in…

Episode 109 That lunatic. Even in that state, he didn't let out so much as a groan. In the end, the Emperor took a step back. If a mage had truly intended to infiltrate the duke's residence… that would have been a disaster. But there was no evidence. Because he was dead. ‘A mage dying on my land is the biggest headache of all.’ The Emperor let out a long sigh and pressed his forehead. As Leviathan began to walk away, he glanced at him. “Arcadia’s come upon a convenient…

60Without realizing it, my tone had grown a little sharp. Licht blinked in a daze. A flicker of embarrassment passed over his usually calm face, the mask slipping from his features. After a moment, the prince dropped his head, covering his mouth with a hand. “…What am I doing?” A short groan escaped him as he ran both hands through his hair in frustration. “Sorry.” He suddenly lifted his head. Now Licht’s face was mottled with discomfort and embarrassment. The constant,…

Episode 82 “Half-wit. Luck’s all you’ve got.” The princes jeered. It was nothing new. Licht was the emperor’s illegitimate child, lucky enough to have been acknowledged with the status of prince. That fact was a top secret, but as with all secrets, it was an open one within the palace walls. “So why did you come all the way out here alone and end up abducted? Do you really enjoy catching our father’s attention that much?” Licht sat down with a calm, polite…

Episode 45 “Well then… I’ll just check the hidden characters and be right back, so stay put and enjoy yourselves, dreaming as you watch, all right?” After escorting Rubian and Khalid to the workshop, Maddox turned away. It was called a workshop, but in truth, it was a clutter of odds and ends like dyes and protective gear—nothing particularly dangerous. “Yes! Hurry and go check the blueprints!” As Rubian got as far as ‘check the—,’ Maddox vanished like the…

Episode 92 The next day was the swordsmanship tournament. On my way to the arena, I paused. Void, who should have been waiting in the preparation room, was racing towards me from afar. "Ruuuuby! I won!" Void was jumping up and down with a wooden sword in hand. My head tilted in confusion. "But it hasn't even started yet? How did you win?" "Everyone forfeited?" "What? Why?" "Dunno. They all got a stomachache or something." Void shrugged, proudly showing off the badge pinned to…

87“All right, everyone, sit!” “Yes, ma’am.” With a flourish, the Zevert family moved in unison to the girl’s small, rounded gesture—like soldiers falling into line. Order restored. A sigh, laden with torment, slipped from the young lady as she shook her head. As Rubian straightened again to sit properly, a sudden thought flickered through her mind. With care, she glanced over her shoulder. “……!” Her eyes met those of the Marchioness Eibreich, who’d been watching…

96“How are they… managing things?” Dad slowly rose to his feet. “There was a kidnapping not that long ago. Everyone’s gotten complacent, haven’t they?” Mom echoed, her voice icy with concern. “Well then, I’ll be off. Levi.” “Yes.” With that enigmatic farewell from Mom, Dad was swept away on a gust of wind and vanished. I blinked in confusion. “Dad… where are you going?” “To give them… a little guidance.” “Huh?” “Advice. Sounds like…

"Save me." I turned to see the Duke—the hero himself—with dark circles under his eyes, clutching a dessert tray as though it were his lifeline. "For me, a sword is better than a pen. At least, that's true for me." Muttering words I couldn't make sense of, he shuffled toward me like a zombie, and I couldn't help a deeply rational suspicion. Hmm… Could the male lead… have died of overwork? A dark alleyway. A figure, cloaked from head to toe in a black robe, slipped out of the…

Episode 50 “Hmph, go on.” The caretaker pinched my nose as she spoke. We were sitting side by side at the base of a nearby tree. “Hmph.” I blew my nose into her hand. “Oh dear. Your nose is all red now.” “Sniff.” “All cried out?” Nodding, I dipped my head and the caretaker grinned broadly. Something about her gentle face made my tears start flowing again. ‘Is it because I got caught doing something wrong?’ I didn’t know myself why I kept crying.…

Come to think of it, the magic stone shop was right next to the forge. The old man, just coming out from there, spotted me and hurried over. “So, you were out and about only to end up here? Hm?” “Your beard… your beard…” Rub, rub. After scooping me up and rubbing his face against mine to his heart’s content, Grandpa finally set me down. “Ha, seriously. A real spectacle, you are.” “Ah, the blacksmith, Mister.” “Good day. Care to pick out some pretty scraps of…

Episode 39 I once mentioned it to Khalid in passing. If I wanted to break free completely from the Mage King's oppression, after being exploited by the kingdom, the surest way would be to get rid of the king. Ever since then, Khalid had vowed through gritted teeth to kill the Mage King himself. As if he were saying he’d grant me freedom, just as I’d broken his chains and set him free in that cave. “No. You’re… still too young.” “Hah. Is that why you came here?” A short,…

Episode 100 “Little fairy.” It was Liam. “Ah, brother…” “You look pale as spoiled cream. Come here.” I dangled from Liam. He had taken a pendant but simply slipped it into my pocket. Clinging to his back, I squeezed my eyes shut. When my body trembled slightly, Liam let out a short sigh and patted my legs gently. “Fairy, what’s that on your wrist?” Looking down at the arm I’d wrapped around his neck, Liam asked. When I moved one arm, it jingled…

Episode 78 “Your face looks a bit flushed. Are you running a fever again?” Khalid suddenly asked, his expression tense. I shook my head vigorously to say no. He then poured rich, overflowing mana into me in an instant, a surge of power on a whole different level from anything he’d given me before. As I opened my eyes wide at the sudden influx of strength, his reply was nonchalant. “Repayment.” Khalid released my hand and stretched his arms wide. “All right. I think that’s…

26 After returning from my outing, I dove straight onto the bed. “Whew… That was some good shopping.” “My, you bought an awful lot, didn’t you?” Hazel’s eyes grew round as she looked at the boxes being brought in one after another. “Yeah. Come, take a look!” “These look like magic stones… and these?” “Oh, those are herbs!” I rushed over and eagerly explained the herbs I’d bought to Hazel. After the ore shop, my next stop had been the herb shop.…

Episode 95The mage clicked his tongue lightly. The Zevert heiress. He’d thought her round eyes and smooth brow resembled that ‘seventh’ somehow. ‘No… Honestly, all kids have round faces and smooth skin.’ The truth was, he’d only seen the ‘seventh’ once, and even that was hazy in his memory. Nonetheless, he volunteered for the tracking mage position. In order to be noticed by the Mage King. And that decision was not mistaken. “I can’t betray expectations…

94"Hello?" "Huh? Is there another checkpoint here? I thought the last one was just back—there…" My voice trailed off awkwardly. The person before me was a brown-haired man. He wore no name tag, and his clothes were ordinary… But no, that's not it. He's not a judge. I faltered and stopped moving. 'Ma… mage.' A chill ran down my spine. "I got lost while out for a walk… Could you perhaps tell me where the exit is?" The man, smiling warmly, spoke utter nonsense. A subtle…
